Application:	Butenafine hydrochloride has been used as a standard in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method to determine butenafine hydrochloride in butenafine-loaded nanosponges.
Biochem/physiol Actions:	Butenafine exhibits fungicidal and antimycotic activity. This fungal squalene epoxidase inhibitor serves as an effective fungicide against T. rubrum, T. mentagrophytes, Microsporum canis, Aspergillus fumigatus, Sporothrix schenckii, Candida parapsilosis, and C. albicans. It is considered more effective and rapid than other antifungal drugs at curing dermatophytosis and preventing recurrences. In humans, it is used topically to treat tinea conditions and superficial candidiasis. Butenafine is considered a promising antimycotic compound to treat tinea pedis due to its efficiency, safety profile, relapse rates, and cost-effectiveness.
Biochem/physiol Actions:	Butenafine is an antifungal; squalene epoxidase inhibitor. It inhibits the synthesis of ergosterol needed in fungal cell membranes.
